Inspection Findings
During an interview with the Nurse Practitioner (NP) on 3/26/26 at 4:30 pm, she stated she assessed Resident #1 on 3/5/26 after the medication error and found him to be alert and responsive to his name but did not respond to her questions.
She stated he did not appear to be in any discomfort; his skin was dry and warm with no discolorations.
The NP stated that Resident #1 was receiving end of life services and had been gradually declining over the last week, so she expected him to not be very alert or responsive to her questions.
The NP stated that even though Resident #1 received a much higher dose of Morphine on 3/4/26 than he should have been administered per the order, it did not affect his outcome and Resident #1 passed away peacefully on 3/7/26.
During an interview with the Administrator on 3/26/26 at 5:00pm, she stated the DON made her aware of the medication error on 3/6/26 when it was discovered.
